While I basically agree with what you’re saying, I’d also like to point out that the money they get from you watching ads is miniscule. I don’t remember which YouTuber it was, maybe Matthias Wandell, who said that if you donate just one dollar, that’s more than they’re ever going to profit from you watching ads.

That happened to me on desktop aswell. I updated Firefox and uBlock and rebooted my computer and that seems to have solved it. For now…

People here mostly seem to vote on basis of who they think the commenter is - not what they’re saying.

What in my message indicates to you that I didn’t read it?

It’s easy to say as someone with a healthy brain. A blind, deaf or a paralyzed person might feel different once there truly is a way to get your sight back with this technology.

I wonder what you guys thought animal testing is about, if this is somehow surprising to you. This is just another day at the office for the people running these experiments. The issue is not “Elon doing animal testing” but animal testing in itself.

However - if you think we shouldn’t do it then you should also be aware of the tradeoffs. Without this cruelty there’s no modern medicine either. Also, if you complain about this but eat meat then you’re a hypocrite.

I didn’t know such feature even existed

What is the difference exactly? It’s both animal testing. It’s going to be cruel by its very nature. They’re testing on animals because they’re not allowed to test on humans. If they could they would.

Everyone here acting like this is all black and white. Without animal testing there’s no modern medicine. That is a choise we could have made but didn’t. Thousands of animals had to suffer so that millions of people would not. From an utilitairian point of view it’s a no-brainer but it’s still cruel as fuck and there’s no getting around that. Animal testing or no - both leads to individuals suffering unecessarily.

I, for one aren’t willing to take the moral high ground here, because I eat meat ie. take part in the chicken/pig holocaust.

Considering that I get a few new bot followers every day, and has been for probably over a year now, but my total follower count isn’t increasing much, I’m quessing they’re indeed removing these accounts, but new ones just keep popping up. That would pretty much be on par with why he says he’s going to start charging for it.

I didn’t really have an opinion on the Israel/Palestine conflict or about Netanyahu as a person before he was a quest on Lex Fridman’s podcast. He seemed like an extremely disingenuous person, with obviously very politician answers to the questions presented to him. That made me, for the first time, to look into what this conflict is about and though it’s still quite nuanced, my view however isn’t especially favourable to Israel now.

Tubeless tires solves that issue aswell. You can drive over nails and the sealant inside the tire automatically plugs the hole.

Thanks for keeping me up with the latest on Twitter and Elon Musk. I don’t know how I even managed to live back when I went for months without thinking about either of these two.

You made three claims:

1. Fueling the child addiction will harden the persons mental health problem.

2. One of the ways to help a person with such addiction, is to replace it with adult pornography.

3. Fueling it with more of that content won’t do any good.

I asked for a source for these claims because obviously you didn’t just come up with this yourself, so I’m assuming there’s some study to back these claims up which I asked you to provide, and instead you gave me a link that even you admitted doesn’t talk about any of this.

Also:

It’s obviously stated there is psychological help.

From the study you linked:

…healthcare providers must rely on data from international literature. These clearly demonstrate that simple psychotherapies do not lead to a reduction in the risk of reoffending. On the other hand, therapies such as Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and, even more so, the combination of CBT with pharmacotherapy targeting hormones, significantly reduces the risk of reoffending.

I have not once called it CG porn.

Then why do you link that if it has almost nothing to do with what we’re discussing here?

You mind quoting the part where it talks about the role of adult pornography and how fueling this “addiction” makes it worse?

And what if CG porn is that help

That’s not claiming it is benefical. It’s entertaining the idea that what if it is.

I assume it increases it then since you’re so opposed to it

I’d love if you could cite your evidence.
